Treat Infrastructure Differently

28

• Instances are disposable

• Instances are homogeneous

• Tune and groom your applications

• Shoot and replace your instances

• Instances have short shelf-life

• Servers are valuable

• Servers have unique names

• Tune and groom your servers

• Spend hours fixing broken servers

• Servers have long shelf-life
